This document outlines the test methods and procedures for carrying out externally loaded tests to assess susceptibility to hot cracking.
The following tests are described:
- Hot tensile tests
- Varestraint and Transvarestraint test
- Flat tensile test.
The above tests can provide information about the hot cracking sensitivity of parent materials, weld metals and weldments. Assessment is based upon the measurement of the "brittle temperature range" (BTR) where hot cracks occur.
This document applies primarily to austenitic stainless steels - nickel-, nickel-base and nickel-copper alloys, weldments and welding consumables. However, the principles can be extended to other materials such as aluminium alloys and high strength steels by agreement between contracting parties.

This document outlines the test methods and procedures for carrying out externally loaded tests to assess
susceptibility to hot cracking.
The following tests are described:
Hot tensile tests

Flat tensile test.
The above tests can provide information about the hot cracking sensitivity of parent materials, weld metals
and weldments. Assessment is based upon the measurement of the "brittle temperature range" (BTR) where
hot cracks occur.
This document applies primarily to austenitic stainless steels, nickel, nickel base and nickel copper alloys,
weldments and welding consumables. However, the principles can be extended to other materials such as
aluminium alloys and high strength steels by agreement between contracting parties.

5 Principle
Externally loaded hot cracking tests may be used to provide quantitative information on solidification, liquation
and ductility dip cracking in accordance with Table 2. They are suitable for assessing the susceptibility to hot
cracking of parent materials, weldments and weld metals. However it should be recognised that the exact
mechanisms of the various forms of hot cracking are not fully understood. The different externally loaded tests
described in this document use different criteria for the assessment of susceptibility to hot cracking. None of
the tests reproduce exactly the conditions of temperature, cooling rate, restraint and externally applied strains,
which occur in a wide range of fabrications where hot cracking may be considered to be a potential problem.
Although work continues to address these issues, the tests in their presently developed form can only be used
to rank materials, welding consumables and welding conditions. The results can then be compared with
databases of relevant experience to make judgements as to potential suitability. For this reason it is not
possible to state that any particular test is the most appropriate for any specific requirement. The user of the
test shall decide on the basis of past experience, or on preliminary experiments, which is the most appropriate
test for the required application.
Four types of hot cracking test are described and their relevance to the various forms of hot cracking, and
their possible range of application, are summarised in Table 2.
All the hot cracking tests described depend on the imposition of an external load on the specimen using
suitable test equipment.

This external loading can produce a measurable strain and strain rate on the specimen during the brittle
temperature range (BTR) and can therefore reproduce certain aspects of the welding process. The results
produced from this test are quantitative and are generally reproducible for the same test using a defined
testing procedure and similar equipment.
Unfortunately, equipment and testing procedures are not standardised between different laboratories, and
absolute reproducibility between laboratories is limited. Repeatability of results within a single laboratory using
consistent procedures and the same equipment is generally good.
When parent materials are to be tested, the test specimen is heated either with a TIG melt run in the case of
the Varestraint and flat tensile test or by resistance heating in the hot tensile test. In both cases a HAZ is
formed which is subjected to straining and hence assessment of susceptibility to cracking.
When weld metal is to be tested, a weld deposit is made by the appropriate arc welding process and in the
cases of the Varestraint and flat tensile test, is subjected to straining as the weld solidifies. Any cracking,
which occurs, forms the basis of the assessment. For the hot tensile test the specimen is extracted from a
multipass welded joint and assessment is based on measured mechanical properties using the appropriate
procedure, see 6.1.1
Multipass welds can also be assessed using the Varestaint and flat tensile test, but for these tests, samples
with multipass deposits have to be prepared and the weld metal is then reheated using a similar TIG melt run
to that utilised in parent material tests.

Although it is possible for more than one form of hot cracking to be present in a given test piece it should be
noted that the formation of one type of cracking e.g. solidification, may relieve the test strain on the specimen
to such an extent that other forms of cracking do not occur. Therefore the lack of a particular form of cracking
in the testpiece, does not mean that there is no risk of that type of cracking occurring in practice.
The Transvarestraint test was primarily designed to assess weld metal solidification cracking by applying
strains transverse to the length of the weld. It is possible that other types of hot cracking form and if these do
occur, they should be noted on the test report.

The hot tensile test determines the hot cracking susceptibility of a material in a simulated welding thermal
cycle using a cylindrical shaped tensile specimen. The specimen can be abruptly broken at any convenient
moment in the welding thermal cycle. For the study of hot cracking where it is necessary to simulate fusion
welding thermal heating, a specimen shall be
